This project started out as a relatively simple one, taking the Warner Archive Blu Ray and adding to it all the exclusive special features, and the isolated score, from the Lumivision Laserdisc. 

However upon inspection the blu ray has some severe differences in colour. I’ve been a fan of this film for a long time and I’ve owned it on VHS, Laserdisc and DVD, but it’s never looked like the blu ray. I read that Warner are standing by the transfer and are saying that is how it was originally intended, now I never saw it theatrically but to my eyes the blu looks awful. So it changed into a full regrade using the DVD and a total of 60 LUTs.

Hi, I would just join 2 AC3 or DTS tracks together. Obviously, the bitrate and the number of channels are identical

Can I do it with MKVtoolnix?

Massive thanks to Zoidberg who captured the special features for this project. As a side note this is one of the best Audio Commentary tracks I have heard so far.

Just discovered that the German DVD of Dune released by Astro has a bigger frame size than BD:

US/DE BDs have just a fraction more image on the left of the French Ultimate DVD seen in the comparison, while Astro DVD has more image of top, left and right in comparison to US/DE BD.

Would be interesting to get it, and merge with the BD to get bigger image and more details.

So I thought it would be fun to hear about some movies that you enjoy that most people don't like and why you like them. I'll name a few I like that most people criticize too harshly imo: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Most Chuck Norris movies that aren't Code of Silence or Lone Wolf McQuade, Highlander 2 (Special Edition), RoboCop 2, Rambo III, etc.

hello. im anonymous. im trying to find workprint versions of disney, pixar, or animated movies. i cant find any workprint movies on youtube, but i hope to find some here. i look foward to being in this board.

Hi everyone

I am currently working on preserving all of the 4:3 Open Matte DVDs in my collection and the four original Batman films are the first ones up. They are also arguably my favorites to watch in this aspect ratio since I grew up on the VHS copies, which are the same master as the "flipper" DVDs. These are 1:1 copies of the DVD files so all of the menus are in tact. I also took the liberty to make 600dpi scans of the cover art.

Here's a screenshot comparison so you know what to expect for framing (slightly cropped sides with top and bottom opened up):

Hi everyone

My name is Josh, and I figured that I'd start participating more in this forum (I'm currently on OT.com as "trillary dump" and TSWT.com as "Jobeinator" which I'm aware is confusing). I am very interested in Open Matte copies of any film, as well as hard-to-find cuts of films, preferably extended versions of films. 
Another thing that I just started getting into is obscure media releases. Right now, D-theater (or D-VHS) releases and early HD broadcasts interest me most since they are usually the same master from the LD.

I look forward to discussing further in these forums!

Hello.

No doubt many of us are familiar with Colek's project that regraded the remastered ABT print to look like the Golden Princess laserdisc. I've been toying with the idea of doing something similar (as you might have seen from my thread in the 'requests' section), while hopefully creating a playable file that didn't have the brightness issues. I'm doing this because I always felt the remaster deserved better than what it got, so if I can do something that looks a bit more pleasing (and closer to the theatrical colours) I'll be happy if it turns out like his would have been.

I've not actually seen his preview version (only the initial version he released some years ago with the newly translated subtitles and laserdisc audio tracks), so all I've got to go on is the screencaps that he made available.

However, I'll be taking on board some of the suggestions I've already received here like reducing the overly magenta nature of those colours and adding back some of the blue that these remasters always seem to leave out.

Here are some in progress shots, and as ever I welcome any feedback. I hope this can stand as a complement to what Colek was doing with his.

As for audio and subtitles, I don't have many sources available beyond what Colek used for his early version, so if anyone has any tracks they'd like included I'm all ears.

Thanks!
